Stanford's Travel Guidelines (April 1st Update) (Francisco Ramirez, USA, 04/02/15 5:06 am)

This document (below) is my idea of an April Fools' joke.

And to lower WAISworld's temperature regarding the Spanish Civil War:

In 1983 I gave invited lectures in Madrid and Granada over a three-month period. The invitation came from someone with left ties, so the right assumed I was coming from them. The left knew I was not really from them. It was funny to see how much what I said was being interpreted through classic left/right frames, none of which made much sense.

JE comments: Here it is. This came in via Overnight Pigeon, although the bird seems to have left Stanford on April 1st...1999!  But wait a minute:  are they "dissing" my town?
